IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
1. FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY, READ THE INSTRUCTION
MANUAL BEFORE OPERATING THE MACHINE. Learning
the machine’s application, limitations, and specific
hazards will greatly minimize the possibility of accidents
and injury.
2. WEAR EYE AND HEARING PROTECTION. ALWAYS
USE SAFETY GLASSES. Everyday eyeglasses are NOT
safety glasses. USE CERTIFIED SAFETY EQUIPMENT.
Eye protection equipment should comply with ANSI Z87.1
standards. Hearing equipment should comply with ANSI
S3.19 standards.
3. WEAR PROPER APPAREL. Do not wear loose clothing,
gloves, neckties, rings, bracelets, or other jewelry which
may get caught in moving parts. Nonslip footwear is
recommended. Wear protective hair covering to contain
long hair.
4. DO NOT USE THE MACHINE IN A DANGEROUS
ENVIRONMENT. The use of power tools in damp or wet
locations or in rain can cause shock or electrocution. Keep
your work area well-lit to prevent tripping or placing arms,
hands, and fingers in danger.
5. MAINTAIN ALL TOOLS AND MACHINES IN PEAK
CONDITION. Keep tools sharp and clean for best and safest
performance. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing
accessories. Poorly maintained tools and machines can further
damage the tool or machine and/or cause injury.
6. CHECK FOR DAMAGED PARTS. Before using the machine,
check for any damaged parts. Check for alignment of
moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts,
and any other conditions that may affect its operation. A
guard or any other part that is damaged should be
properly repaired or replaced. Damaged parts can cause
further damage to the machine and/or injury.
7. KEEP THE WORK AREA CLEAN. Cluttered areas and benches
invite accidents.
8. KEEP CHILDREN AND VISITORS AWAY. Your shop is a
potentially dangerous environment. Children and visitors can be
injured.
9. REDUCE THE RISK OF UNINTENTIONAL STARTING. Make
sure that the switch is in the “OFF” position before
plugging in the power cord. In the event of a power failure,
move the switch to the “OFF” position. An accidental
start-up can cause injury.
10. USE THE GUARDS. Check to see that all guards are in
place, secured, and working correctly to reduce the risk of
injury.
11. REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES
BEFORE STARTING THE MACHINE. Tools, scrap pieces,
and other debris can be thrown at high speed, causing
injury.
12. USE THE RIGHT MACHINE. Don’t force a machine or an
attachment to do a job for which it was not designed.
Damage to the machine and/or injury may result.
13. USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES. The use of
accessories and attachments not recommended by Delta
may cause damage to the machine or injury to the user.
14. USE THE PROPER EXTENSION CORD. Make sure your
extension cord is in good condition. When using an
extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry
the current your product will draw. An undersized cord will
cause a drop in line voltage, resulting in loss of power and
overheating. See the Extension Cord Chart for the correct
size depending on the cord length and nameplate ampere
rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller
the gauge number, the heavier the cord.
15. SECURE THE WORKPIECE. Use clamps or a vise to hold
the workpiece when practical. Loss of control of a
workpiece can cause injury.
16. FEED THE WORKPIECE AGAINST THE DIRECTION OF THE
ROTATION OF THE BLADE, CUTTER, OR ABRASIVE
SURFACE. Feeding it from the other direction will cause
the workpiece to be thrown out at high speed.
17. DON’T FORCE THE WORKPIECE ON THE MACHINE.
Damage to the machine and/or injury may result.
18. DON’T OVERREACH. Loss of balance can make you fall
into a working machine, causing injury.
19. NEVER STAND ON THE MACHINE. Injury could occur if the tool
tips, or if you accidentally contact the cutting tool.
20. NEVER LEAVE THE MACHINE RUNNING UNATTENDED.
TURN THE POWER OFF. Don’t leave the machine until it comes
to a complete stop. A child or visitor could be injured.
21. TURN THE MACHINE “OFF”, AND DISCONNECT THE
MACHINE FROM THE POWER SOURCE before installing or
removing accessories, before adjusting or changing set-
ups, or when making repairs. An accidental start-up can
cause injury.
22. MAKE YOUR WORKSHOP CHILDPROOF WITH
PADLOCKS, MASTER SWITCHES, OR BY REMOVING
STARTER KEYS. The accidental start-up of a machine by
a child or visitor could cause injury.
23
. STAY ALERT, WATCH WHAT YOU ARE DOING, AND
USE COMMON SENSE. DO NOT USE THE MACHINE
WHEN YOU ARE TIRED OR UNDER THE INFLUENCE
OF DRUGS, ALCOHOL, OR MEDICATION. A moment of
inattention while operating power tools may result in injury.
24. USE OF THIS TOOL CAN GENERATE AND
DISBURSE DUST OR OTHER AIRBORNE PARTICLES,
INCLUDING WOOD DUST, CRYSTALLINE SILICA DUST
AND ASBESTOS DUST. Direct particles away from face and
body. Always operate tool in well ventilated area and provide
for proper dust removal. Use dust collection system wherever
possible. Exposure to the dust may cause serious and
permanent respiratory or other injury, including silicosis (a
serious lung disease), cancer, and death. Avoid breathing the
dust, and avoid prolonged contact with dust. Allowing dust to
get into your mouth or eyes, or lay on your skin may promote
absorption of harmful material. Always use properly fitting
NIOSH/OSHA approved respiratory protection appropriate for
the dust exposure, and wash exposed areas with soap and
water.

FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE RULES MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY.
ADDITIONAL SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
1. DO NOT OPERATE THIS MACHINE until it is
assembled and installed according to the
instructions.
2. OBTAIN ADVICE FROM YOUR SUPERVISOR,
instructor, or another qualified person if you are not
familiar with the operation of this machine.
3. FOLLOW ALL WIRING CODES and recommended
electrical connections.
4. ALWAYS USE GUARDS, SPLITTER, AND ANTI-
KICKBACK FINGERS whenever possible. Check to
see that they are in place, secured, and working
correctly.
5. KICKBACK IS THE NATURAL TENDENCY OF THE
WORKPIECE TO BE THROWN BACK AT THE
OPERATOR when the workpiece initially contacts the
blade or if the workpiece pinches the blade. Kickback
is dangerous and can result in serious injury.
AVOID KICKBACK by:
A. keeping blade sharp and free of rust and pitch.
B. keeping rip fence parallel to the saw blade.
C. using saw blade guard and spreader for every
possible operation, including all through sawing.
D. pushing the workpiece past the saw blade prior to
release.
E. never ripping a workpiece that is twisted or
warped, or does not have a straight edge to guide
along the fence.
F. using featherboards when the anti-kickback device
cannot be used.
G. never sawing a large workpiece that cannot be
controlled.
H. never using the fence as a guide when
crosscutting.
I. never sawing a workpiece with loose knots or other
flaws.
7. REMOVE CUT-OFF PIECES AND SCRAPS from the
table before starting the saw. The vibration of the
machine may cause them to move into the saw blade
and be thrown out. After cutting, turn the machine off.
After the blade has come to a complete stop, remove
all debris.
8. NEVER START THE MACHINE with the workpiece
against the blade.
9. NEVER run the workpiece between the fence and a
moulding cutterhead.
10. CUTTING THE WORKPIECE WITHOUT THE USE OF
A FENCE OR MITER GAUGE IS KNOWN AS
“FREEHAND” CUTTING. NEVER perform “free-hand”
operations. Use either the fence or miter gauge to
position and guide the workpiece.
11. HOLD THE WORKPIECE FIRMLY against the miter
gauge or fence.
12. CUTTING COMPLETELY THROUGH THE WORK-
PIECE IS KNOWN AS “THROUGH-SAWING”.
Ripping and cross-cutting are through-sawing
operations. Cutting with the grain (or down the length
of the workpiece) is ripping. Cutting across the grain (or
across the workpiece) is cross-cutting. Use a fence or
fence system for ripping. DO NOT use a fence or fence
system for cross-cutting. Instead, use a miter gauge.
USE PUSH STICK(S) for ripping a narrow workpiece.
13. AVOID AWKWARD OPERATIONS AND HAND
POSITIONS where a sudden slip could cause a hand
to move into the blade.
14. KEEP ARMS, HANDS, AND FINGERS away from the
blade.
15. NEVER have any part of your body in line with the path
of the saw blade.
16. NEVER REACH AROUND or over the saw blade.
17. NEVER attempt to free a stalled saw blade without first
turning the machine “OFF”.
18. PROPERLY SUPPORT LONG OR WIDE workpieces.
19. NEVER PERFORM LAYOUT, assembly or set-up work
on the table/work area when the machine is running.
20. TURN THE MACHINE “OFF” AND DISCONNECT
THE MACHINE from the power source before
installing or removing accessories, before adjusting or
changing set-ups, or when making repairs.
21. TURN THE MACHINE “OFF”, disconnect the machine
from the power source, and clean the table/work area
before leaving the machine. LOCK THE SWITCH IN
THE “OFF” POSITION to prevent unauthorized use.

2. Grounded, cord-connected machines intended for
use on a supply circuit having a nominal rating less
than 150 volts:
If the machine is intended for use on a circuit that has an
outlet that looks like the one illustrated in Fig. A, the
machine will have a grounding plug that looks like the plug
illustrated in Fig. A. A temporary adapter, which looks like
the adapter illustrated in Fig. B, may be used to connect
this plug to a matching 2-conductor receptacle as shown
in Fig. B if a properly grounded outlet is not available. The
temporary adapter should be used only until a properly
grounded outlet can be installed by a qualified electrician.
The green-colored rigid ear, lug, and the like, extending
from the adapter must be connected to a permanent
ground such as a properly grounded outlet box. Whenever
the adapter is used, it must be held in place with a metal
screw.
NOTE: In Canada, the use of a temporary adapter is not
permitted by the Canadian Electric Code.
IN ALL CASES, MAKE CERTAIN THE
RECEPTACLE IN QUESTION IS PROPERLY
GROUNDED. IF YOU ARE NOT SURE HAVE A
QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN CHECK THE RECEPTACLE.
1. All grounded, cord-connected machines:
In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding
provides a path of least resistance for electric current to
reduce the risk of electric shock. This machine is
equipped with an electric cord having an equipment-
grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must
be plugged into a matching outlet that is properly installed
and grounded in accordance with all local codes and
ordinances.
Do not modify the plug provided - if it will not fit the outlet,
have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding
conductor can result in risk of electric shock. The
conductor with insulation having an outer surface that is
green with or without yellow stripes is the equipment-
grounding conductor. If repair or replacement of the
electric cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the
equipment-grounding conductor to a live terminal.
Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel if
the grounding instructions are not completely
understood, or if in doubt as to whether the machine is
properly grounded.
Use only 3-wire extension cords that have 3-prong
grounding type plugs and matching 3-conductor
receptacles that accept the machine’s plug, as shown in
Fig. A.
Repair or replace damaged or worn cord immediately.
POWER CONNECTIONS
MOTOR SPECIFICATIONS
Your machine is wired for 120 volts, 60 HZ alternating current. Before connecting the machine to the power source,
make sure the switch is in the “OFF” position.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
THIS MACHINE MUST BE GROUNDED WHILE IN USE TO PROTECT THE OPERATOR FROM
ELECTRIC SHOCK.
EXTENSION CORDS
Use proper extension cords. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition and is a 3-wire
extension cord which has a 3-prong grounding type plug and matching receptacle which will accept the machine’s
plug. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current of the machine. An
undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage, resulting in loss of power and overheating. Fig. D-1 or D-2, shows
the correct gauge to use depending on the cord length. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge
number, the heavier the cord.

3. 240 VOLT SINGLE PHASE OPERATION
The motor supplied with your machine is a dual voltage,
120/240 volt motor. It is shipped ready-to-run for 120
volt operation. However, it can be converted for 240 volt
operation.
A qualified electrician should do the conversion, or the
machine can be taken to an Authorized Delta Service
Center. When completed, the machine must conform to
the National Electric Code and all local codes and
ordinances.
The machine is converted by re-wiring the motor for 240
volts, installing a 240 volt plug on the power supply cord
and making sure the switch is one that is rated for 240
volt operation.
Be sure the 240 volt plug is only used in an outlet having
the same configuration as the plug illustrated in Fig. C.
No adapter should be used with the 240 volt plug.
IN ALL CASES, MAKE CERTAIN THAT
THE RECEPTACLE IN QUESTION IS PROPERLY
GROUNDED. IF YOU ARE NOT SURE, HAVE A

ADJUSTING 90 DEGREE AND 45 DEGREE
POSITIVE STOPS
The machine is equipped with positive stops that will
quickly and accurately position the saw blade at 90° and
45° to the table. To check and adjust the positive stops,
proceed as follows:
DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER
SOURCE.
1. Remove the blade guard and splitter.
2. Raise the saw blade to its highest position.
3. Set the blade at 90° to the table by turning the blade
tilting handwheel counterclockwise as far as it will go.
4. Use a combination square (A) Fig. 33 to see if the blade
is at 90° to the table surface.
5. If the blade is not at 90° to the table, loosen set screw
(B) with 5/32″ allen wrench (C), and turn the blade tilting
handwheel until the blade is 90° to the table. Turn set
screw (B) clockwise until it bottoms.
6. Adjust the pointer (D) Fig. 34 to point to the zero degree
mark on the scale by loosening screws (E), adjusting
pointer (D), and tightening screws (E).
7. Turn the blade tilting handwheel clockwise as far as it
will go and use a combination square to see if the blade
is at 45° to the table.
8. If the blade is not at 45° to the table, loosen set screw
(F) Fig. 33, and turn blade tilting handwheel until the
blade is 45° to the table. Turn set screw (F) clockwise
until it bottoms.
9. Replace blade guard and splitter before using the
machine.
CHECKING BLADE ALIGNMENT
The saw has been aligned at the factory so the saw blade
is parallel to the miter gage slots; however, it is
recommended to check the alignment before initial
operation as follows:
DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER
SOURCE.
1. Place a combination square (A) Fig. 35, on the table
with one edge of the square in the miter gage slot, as
shown, and adjust the square so the rule just
touches one of the teeth on the saw blade at the
forward position, as shown in Fig. 35. Lock the
square in this position.
2. Rotate the saw blade so that the same tooth you
used in STEP 1 is in the rear position, as shown in
Fig. 36, and check this distance. Both the front and
rear measurements should be identical.
3. If an adjustment is necessary see “ADJUSTING
BLADE ALIGNMENT.”

BACKLASH ADJUSTMENTS
DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM
POWER SOURCE.
After a period of extended use, if any play is detected in
the blade raising or blade tilting mechanisms, remove
the blade and make the following adjustments:
ADJUSTING BLADE RAISING MECHANISM - Loosen
locknut (A) Fig. 38, and turn eccentric sleeve (B) until all
play is removed. Tighten locknut (A) while holding
sleeve in place.
ADJUSTING BLADE TILTING MECHANISM - Loosen
locknut (C) Fig. 38, and turn eccentric sleeve (D) until all
play is removed. Tighten locknut (C) while holding
sleeve in place.
BLADE ALIGNMENT IS FACTORY SET
AND SHOULD NOT NEED
ADJUSTMENT. ADJUSTING BLADE ALIGNMENT IN
THE FIELD IS A DIFFICULT AND TIME-CONSUMING
PROCEDURE. ALL SAW BLADES HAVE SOME RUN-
OUT. THEREFORE, RE-ADJUSTING BLADE
ALIGNMENT SHOULD ONLY BE ATTEMPTED IF IT
BECOMES NECESSARY. (SEE CHECKING BLADE
ALIGNMENT.)
DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM
POWER SOURCE.
1. Lower blade. Remove blade guard and table insert.
With a 1/2″ wrench, slightly loosen the 4 front and
rear trunnion mounting bolts. NOTE: Two trunnion
mounting bolts (E) Fig. 37 are shown as looking up
inside side of saw.
2. Move the trunnion assembly in the desired direction.
Tap gently with rubber mallet if necessary.
3. To check blade alignment, follow section
“CHECKING BLADE ALIGNMENT” procedure until
proper alignment is achieved. Tighten 4 trunnion
bolts (E) Fig. 37.
4. Check blade alignment again after tightening bolts to
confirm alignment. If alignment is off, loosen the 4
trunnion bolts (E) and repeat the above steps until
proper alignment is achieved with bolts fully
tightened.
5. Install table insert, blade guard, and lower blade
before reconnecting power source.
